I"m retired for better than 10 years and still looking for an enjoyable pastime. I enjoyed modeling, to a degree, many many years ago. I hope to get back in as a complete rookie. Starting with 1/24 plastics. I'm already in need of some "rookie knowledge" that I will be posting about elsewhere here. So glad I was able to get hooked up with this forum.

Welcome Milo. I hope to be retired in a few years myself, and escape the cesspool I live in for greener pastures. I also recently joined in 'likely another expensive hobby' as my wife calls it. Though, I don't think it needs to be. Anyway, I am quite the rookie myself so I expect we will both be in the same boat for a time.

Take good care,
